No one to blame but me for red card: Rooney

05 Nov, 2011

England striker Wayne Rooney blames no one but himself for what he called his "stupid" red card that has ruled him out of three matches at next year's European championship. Rooney was sent off after kicking Montenegro defender Miodrag Dzudovic in last month's Euro 2012 qualifier in Podgorica which led to a three-match suspension from UEFA, effectively ruling him out of the tournament unless England qualify for the knockout stage.
The English FA will announce on Friday if it plans to appeal against UEFA's decision, while Rooney said he understood if coach Fabio Capello left him out of the squad for the finals.
